The trailer gave me high hopes but in the end, only disappointment lasted. Acting isn't best in the business to say the least but the biggest fail is when Bosley "tracks" a hotel room with a "satellite camera" and a camera view filmed TOWARDS THE WINDOW appears on his tablet. Not to mention cheesy lines like "I never knew my hard could hurt this much". Overall, if you want a retro show done good, switch to Hawaii-Five-O.…Expand

This is really bad. I hope this gets cancelled before all its episodes run. Garbage acting and even sillier tech (satelites zomming in rooms laterally!). Its silly plot lines are bound to get sillier. With a pilot thats impossible to stomach, this is truly the tv's e-coli.

I wanted to turn it off the moment it started. Painfully bad acting, lame story, horrible editing, one-dimensional characters.... I could go on but just talking about it bums me out. My guess is that the new angels won't be around for very long.

Wow. This was one of the worst TV shows I've seen in a long time. Painful, overacted dialogue, ridiculous plot, uninteresting characters... I don't think they could have made this show more terrible if they tried. Honestly, it was all I could do to force myself to watch the whole thing. It was truly painful to watch.

I gave it an hour and I was done. I thought to myself, "Can I watch 15 - 20 hours of this over the course of a fall season?" The answer was - hell no. There's a lot of good TV on these days - too much to spend time on this stuff. Even though the leading ladies are beautiful - it's not enough to offset the blank stares, tired writing, and general blah.

Thirty-five years after their first appearance, the Angels are back again, except re-modernized, recast, and rebooted. It's certain that the 2011 update of CHARLIE'S ANGELS had potential to be a decent thriller.

There are some thrills in this show, but overall, they are taken over by the techno mood (and music); the Angels' sense of fashion; and enough iPad 2s, hi-tech automatic weapons, and dazzling fashion to make it look like it was updated into the future, make it unrealistic, and cause the whole show to come across as mediocre.…Expand

Drew, Drew, Drew, what have you done? I loved the Charlie's Angels movies and the original show and was excited to see this new spin...until I actually saw it. The casting is horrible! The acting is worthy of a straight to video B movie at best. This show had so much potential. The only thing that could save it, is ending it. And whoever watched the pilot and thought it was good....You're Fired!

It could have been better, but it was a good pilot. It was staded on inumerous interviews that this was THEIR version of the classic! Why do critics look for a reason do bash it by comparing it to the original?

A long time ago, when there was no internet, young males found it much harder to come upon visual material of attractive females. Those were the times when series like Baywatch became hugely successful. These times are gone and today it is simply not enough to put able bodied females onto the screen.

It wasn't a good pilot but it definitely wasn't the worst . as i said earlier that Minka Kelly is the hottest Angels of all and she really proved it .

The only reason I watched the original was because it was so bad it was good. I don't think this remake can rise to even that level. A balance like that does not come around too often where you can sit with your friends and laugh at all the "action" and "dialogue".

In every scene and promotional picture I thought I never saw so much ill fitting clothing with poor cut and color selections since Fashion Bug in the 80's. I mean, that is a huge part of the Angel's, what they are wearing.

Take a cue from Burn Notice, on that show clothing, hair, shoes are executed perfectly. I stopped watching Burn Notice after season 2 as I pretty much get it but it still has a strong audience, for cable. This show is most likely to end after 2 seasons if that.…Expand

I remember sitting in front of my TV when I was in my early teens and watching the original.

ABC has to be ashamed of themselves. First, they canceled a forever soap opera that Susan Lucci paved the way for nearly 4 decades and now it's heading online. I agree with Susan and what a dumb mistake it has to cancel "All My Children." It's one of my favorite soap operas of all time. I think soap operas will be dead if someone has to give back the people wanted to see more. And nowABC has to be ashamed of themselves.

I think soap operas will be dead if someone has to give back the people wanted to see more. And now this, a reboot of the 70's original classic "Charlie's Angels?" This is totally uncall for. I love the series knowed and loved starring the late angel Farrah Fawcett, Cheryl Ladd, and Jaclyn smith. I still love the Charlie's Angels movies starring Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore, and Lucy Liu. But nobody wants to see a reboot of the original series. Maybe Charlie Angels 3 could be a great start to reunite the cast and adding new plots and twists. The reboot has poor casting and the series just wasn't enough action. I thought we were looking for like some blondes and brunettes (and Asian as well), but not African-American afros. ABC should cancel it and suffers the same fate of putting new series to cancel steadily.Charlie's Angels is a hot mess and one of the worst reboots not only in 2011, but the worst shows of all time.…Expand

I only watched episode and WOW it was TERRIBLE. Sure it has the typical things you'd come to expect from Charlie's Angels: the hot girls, the lavish locations, but the acting is just awful. The only one who was remotely good was Rachael Taylor, but even the script let her down. There was no real aggression to any of the girls and it was really confusing.

While this is no way near quality television (at some points its actually laughably bad) it isn't the worst show this season (that honour goes to Unforgettable) and does have some redeeming features. Its just a shame that there is so many things wrong with this show that those qualities cannot show.The main problem is Minka Kelly's Eve who is not only an intolerable bore on screen but noWhile this is no way near quality television (at some points its actually laughably bad) it isn't the worst show this season (that honour goes to Unforgettable) and does have some redeeming features. Its just a shame that there is so many things wrong with this show that those qualities cannot show.The main problem is Minka Kelly's Eve who is not only an intolerable bore on screen but no effort is put into the role by Kelly to even make it passable. Its like this was just one big pay check for her and that's it. The rest of the cast put in some effort with Rachel Taylor having fun with the role she was given and Victor Garber providing the calm docile tones of the never seen Charlie. This show could be fun if it weren't for the unfortunate casting of Kelly and its need to take itself seriously. It's as if it doesn't remember its remaking a show that thrived off of camp.…Collapse

Boy was that bad, its the type of show that has you rolling on the ground in laughter for all the wrong reasons. Terrible acting, predictable story, laughable excuse for a dialogue and not one character you could ever root for. One of the seasons worst shows.

I keep thinking if ABC was crazy when accepted this show, it obviously would be a failure. Look the acting! Everything sounds so fake. They must think we are stupid to watch this. (At least i could watch the whole pilot. I'm a winner!)

Perhaps it would be interesting to have the users/critics age, sex, occupation, etc be displayed beneath their comments as I am sure it would clear up a few iristinized standards, but are these not the entitled target audience anyway. Nevertheless, I will say that the show needed a bit of nudity to compensate for the drelauntious style.

This show did not live up to my expectations as I expected. The acting was horrible, especially Rachael Taylor's, which I must say had the worst character on the show. And making Bosley a good looking bachelor was not a good idea. And Minka Kelly & Annie "whoever she is" were just there on the sidelines to me. All in all, this show was the worst show I've seen in years.
